Dr.Pingale took a quantum leap
 the expansion and complete face lift of his earlier slick clinic into a spanking
new, spacious hi-tech one, complete with state-of-the-art equipment and
never-heard-of-before levels of hygiene. The idea behind this aesthetically designed
clinic is all about overcoming pain with pleasure! This was something they always wanted
to do, but the deterring factors were the costs, which were prohibitive. Both Dr.Pingale
and his better half spent a couple of sleepless nights and then decided to forge ahead. So
once they decided to make this huge investment and go for what is considered the latest in
the dental world, they made sure that this technology was would be recommended atleast for
the next ten years. At one time the duo considered going in for only one chair which is
fully automated. This chair could be operated by the foot and there was no need for the
surgeon to touch any of the controls. The control touch panels can be operated without any
knobs and can be disinfected very easily. After a lot of deep thought, (about the number
of chairs) they decided to go the whole hog.

Whats surprising is that
the prosthodontist who excels on aesthetic dentistry has designed the whole clinic
himself. Right from the reception area that has a beautiful glass etched wall to the
awe-inspiring consulting rooms and the laboratory and the pantry room, he has done it all!
He says, " looking at the clinic one should feel welcome." That is how a glass
panel took over a stone wall, which would not only have obstructed the flow of light but
would have also eliminated the feeling of space.Once you enter you are immediately face to
face with the receptionist who can make you feel comfortable. To begin with there is
lilting music and audiovisuals along with channelised TV programs to keep your mind away
from the rot that has set in your mouth. There is a lot of literature alternated with the
latest magazines. Now if thats not enough to keep you and your brat occupied, there
is a huge fish tank that naturally emanates the feeling of tranquility. There are three
large seating arrangements and the exit area is a different one. This is done in order to
keep the seating area should not be crammed or disturbed by ingoing or outgoing patients.
A lot of glass has been used so that it gives the feeling of depth of vision.

Moving
from the reception to the main work area that is designed to dazzle, in an eye-catching
aquamarine shade that highlights the stark white walls, the simplicity of design,
immediately appeals the sensibilities with the sterilization unit neatly tucked in the
compact cabinets. The person doesnt get to see the instruments that inject, poke or
scrape. Also everything is designed in such a way, tbat there is minimum noise pollution.

Attached is a small lab,
which accommodates a full-fledged lab bench with aspirators as well as trimmers, polishing
& grinding equipment.

The content couple take
great pride in stating that right from the on-line water purifier to the disposable
glasses, the automatic disinfectant that immediately sprays the basin, the moment the
patient has gargled they have gone to great lengths to maintain the highest
standards of hygiene and safety at the turn of the century.
